On Saturday, why not take a walk across the beautiful Walkway Over the Hudson? The Hudson Valley Art Market will be presenting Make Her Day, a lovely selection of "artists and artisans, musings and musicians, sippings and samplings in addition to multi-generational Make-Your-Own gifts in order to truly Make-Her Day!"
